Wipro, Romania

Dexion’s TORNADO Automated Storage solution was the recommended choice. This machine, one of the first of its kind in Romania, was specifically designed to save space in Wipro’s warehouse as well as providing fast picking of the stored goods, with laser-guided accuracy.

K-rauta, Finland

Kasten’s suggestion of installing the pallet racking with mesh shelves and baskets ensured that light could go through the racking, making it look roomy in the shop.

With a good working relationship already established and existing Dexion products in place, the Dexion team was able to provide a swift response, and keep costs to a minimum.

Twentepoort Group, The Netherlands

The Dexion team evaluated Twentepoort’s logistical requirements. This needed to take into account the fact that they also provide refrigerated and specialised transport as well as palletised goods.

Mairon, Romania

The first step was to install Cantilever Racking. This is ideal for storing difficult and long items as it doesn’t have front uprights getting in the way of placing and retrieving loads.

Agrimarket, Finland

A number of storage solutions were required to meet the needs of the shops, storage and outdoor locations. These included shop fittings, pallet racking and cantilever racks.

Meneta, Denmark

A bespoke solution that enabled the Pull-out unit to be pulled out and positioned alongside the tool carriage to a height matching the Pull-out tray.

Arc E-commerce, Sweden

The ideal solution to satisfy all the elements was a Pallet Shuttle system. This offered 4 sections, on 3 levels and provided 540 pallet locations, all fully accessible by the Shuttle.

KJV, Denmark

A two-part solution: upgrade from Pallet Racking to Narrow Aisle Shelving and introduce a new Warehouse Management System (WMS).

Cordes & Graefe, Germany

The Dexion team started by working out the best way to store each of the 40,000 items that C&G stock. As these can range in size from small parts to palletised loads and complete plumbing systems, the answer was to provide multiple solutions which worked together as one seamless solution.

Mondi, Hungary

Pallet Shuttle system - a modern and quick system that would allow access the aisles easily and get the pallets from the back to the manipulation area in a quick and safe manner.

When Constructor introduced Octapharma to mobile racking, which would give them 1300 pallet places, they were delighted not only with the additional capacity but also the energy savings they would make.

Bekö Bil, Sweden

Mobile tyre racks significantly increase the storage space compared to traditional methods and are ideal when floor space is limited or rates per m2 are high.

Phoenix Data Management, UK

Pallet Racking three-tier archive storage system with integral floors to maximise storage capacity, address the problem of the sloping floor and make full use of the varying roof height.

Pneu Vanhamme, Belgium

Having examined the space, the Dexion Belgium team quickly concluded that a mezzanine floor was the answer. The client agreed and the project was carried out in two phases.

Novartis, Ireland

The team at Storage Systems recommended Dexion Lockers. The carcass incorporates nesting holes on all sides and a return flange at the base for extra strength and to reduce floor damage.

Coloplast, Sweden

Constructor’s suggestion of one huge mezzanine floor construction of 1800m2 was accepted and installation began without delay.

Hospital Dresden-Friedrichstadt, Germany

To keep up with the constant demands from the rest of the hospital, four HOCAs were installed at the pharmacy together with the Dexion Warehouse Management System (WMS).

Basan, Germany

By processing system data, combined with additional business information, C-WIS carries out complex calculations of stock balance and warehouse logistics along with specific proposals for changes.

MOVO is an electronically controlled system which runs on in-ground rails and can carry bay loads of up to 24 tons at racking heights of up to 12 meters, ideal for use in cold storage rooms.

Coppens International, The Netherlands

Dexion advised Coppens to choose two suppliers, one who would specialise in warehouse storage and racking, while the other would be highly skilled in transportation.

Hansaprint, Finland

As everything is fully automated, the traffic between each set of racking is continuous so it was essential that all equipment and racking functioned exceptionally well.

Karl Heinz Dietrich (KHD), Romania

Dexion devised a solution based on the P90 pre-galvanised Wide Aisle Pallet Racking system. Dexion leads the field in this type of racking, which has been tried and tested in many locations.

Teccon/Automotive parts client, UK

Teccon’s first task was to ensure that the structure could take the planned loads of more than 460kN m2 on spans greater than 8m. This involved taking core samples from the concrete floor slab to be tested, which revealed that the mezzanine floor would require piling.

Augsburg International, Romania

Alongside Dexion's standard racking and shelving systems, the highlight of the project was a multi-tier structure with mezzanine floors, inside the warehouse.

Bakker Transport and Warehousing, The Netherlands

It’s a high building and the Mobile Pallet Racking (MOVO) system installed makes use of the vertical and horizontal space. The MOVO system reached almost to the ceiling and delivers a total of 12,500 pallet places.

Boots Group, UK

Dexion created a solution for the warehouse to maximise the available space in the existing facility. This comprised of a pick tunnel located below a single storey push-back storage, with pallet live lanes servicing the tunnel.

Domino's Pizza, The Netherlands

By partnering with Dexion, the new distribution centre was supplied with an extremely effective solution that allowed Domino's to efficiently handle its order-picking process within its challenging business requirements.

Dexion worked closely with EMMA to design a bespoke solution that would increase business efficiency, but was also cost-effective.

Garden Trade, Belgium

The work was carried out in three phases, with very little disruption to the day-to-day storage and picking of goods. Once having been commissioned, the installation doubled Garden Trade’s storage capacity within the same warehouse.

Hartwall, Finland

Partnering with Kasten offered Hartwall a solution which could store pallets to the required height and the First-in, First-out (FIFO) racking ensured time-sensitive goods were dispatched in the correct order, ensuring no wastage.

MTU Detroit Diesel had partnered with Dexion at another facility. Due to the successful implementation of this storage solution, MTU Detroit Diesel were keen to partner with Dexion again. A solution was needed for storing its products within the existing building without expansion, or seeking a new site.

The MOVO solution enabled Optibelt to save space in its warehouse, while reducing costs and ensuring there was no need to purchase additional equipment for the facility.

Ponsse, Finland

Kasten demonstrated that their TORNADO storage machines would provide the ideal solution, and eight were installed.

Preh, Romania

Most of the solutions employed throughout Preh’s trio of warehouses were P90 Static Racking. The laboratory had HI280 Shelving systems installed, while Premier Rack and P90 Pallet Racking systems were installed for storage areas.

Profytodsd, The Netherlands

The P90 pallet sets were calculated to be strong enough to carry heavy IBCs (Intermediate Bulk Containers) and emergency doors and signage systems were placed throughout.

The solution was to install two Dexion products that worked together seamlessly: Dexion P90 Pallet racking in combination with Pallet Flow and Drive In with the Dexion Pallet Shuttle.

Neville UK/LPC, Erith, UK

The requirements were for a structural standalone mezzanine served via two pallet lift over gates and goods lift.
